    Page: 1 PROVINCE OF PRINCE EDWARD ISLAND PRINCE EDWARD ISLAND COURT OF APPEAL Citation: Ayangma v. The Saltwire Network Inc., 2020 PECA 1 Date: 20200103 Docket: S1-CA-1426 Registry: Charlottetown BETWEEN: NOËL AYANGMA APPELLANT AND: THE SALTWIRE NETWORK INC., operating as The Guardian, BARBARA McKENNA and RYAN ROSS RESPONDENTS Before: Chief Justice David H.

Mitchell Concurred in by: Chief Justice David H. Jenkins Justice Michele M. Murphy Page: 2 DEFAMATION The discoverability principle applies to s.15 of the Defamation Act. That is, the time begins to run from the date the defamatory matter has been discovered or ought to have reasonably been discovered by the person defamed. Every publication of a libel is a new libel. The fact that defamatory material remains online does not mean that the limitation period starts anew each day. CIVIL PROCEDURE Rule 39(4) states that an affidavit for use on a motion may contain statements of the deponent’s information and belief if the source of the information and the fact of the belief is specified. This rule is intended to allow hearsay evidence where the deponent states the source of the information and the fact that he believes. This allows the court to assess the reliability of the hearsay and helps determine the weight the evidence is to be given.

A subcommittee has been developing a new strategic Plan for BoFEP as well as an accompanying work plan for the coming year. This will soon be presented to the Steering Committee for consideration.

We are also pushing ahead with plans to expand the membership of BoFEP and also find ways to engage the members more directly. We anticipate that the cancelled joint conference/workshop with ACCESS will go ahead next spring. Once we receive confirmation from Dalhousie that the conference facilities will be available we will reissue the call for abstracts and begin developing a new conference program. In the meantime you can keep up with BoFEP and its activities on the website www.bofep.org/wpbofep or by checking its Facebook page at https://www.facebook.com/BayofFundyEcosystemPartnership/. 2.
